A truly charming three-bedroomed ground-floor cottage in perfect decorative order on the edge of a peaceful village near the town of Proença-à-Nova, in the district of Castelo Branco.

The property comprises a ground-floor cottage, with a total footprint of 78,4 m2, set on a plot of fertile land with 1,050 m2 and an outbuilding for storage. The house was rebuilt in 2007 and is found in perfect decorative order.

The cottage comprises three large double bedrooms, a shower room and a large fitted kitchen with pine cupboards. All rooms have tiled floors, plastered ceilings and walls. The roof has a cement structure and traditional Portuguese clay tiles.

The property also has a septic tank that does not need emptying, with an in-built recycling sewage system.

The house is connected to mains electricity and mains water but there is also a borehole, normally used for watering the vegetable and flower garden, which can also supply water to the property. Hence there is a choice of water supply, either mains or borehole, and plumbing has been done to switch between both. The borehole is situated on the right-hand side of the house.

The property also has an outbuilding with a total area of 45 m2 divided into two rooms: one with 30 m2 and the other with 15 m2. The larger room has a door to the smaller room – the latter has two small windows and another door for access to the outside area. This smaller room could simply be used for storage, as a chicken coop or even as a small wine cellar. The larger room could also be used either for storage or a wine cellar. Alternatively the wall between both rooms could also be demolished to create a large enough space for a single garage.

The property is partly walled and fenced around the garden and has a front gate which opens to a patio area, on the right hand side of the cottage, with space for parking one car. Outside the property there is plenty of space for off-street parking.

A cemented garden path leads to the vegetable garden and orchard, and a barbecue is situated on the edge of this path.

The garden and orchard plot has 30 fruit trees and 30 grapevines, all mature and yielding fruit.

All windows and the front door in the cottage have sliding railings for extra security.
